Donate Your Vehicle in Texas
Goodwill Car Donations will help you turn an old vehicle into something powerful for your Texas community. Since 2015, we’ve made it easy for people like you to support job training, education, and employment programs by simply donating cars, trucks, RVs, or even boats. Your unwanted vehicle becomes an opportunity for someone else — all while saving you time, clearing up space, and offering you a potential tax deduction. The best part? We handle everything from pickup to paperwork.
Here you will find out how simple it is to donate a vehicle in Texas and why doing so makes a real difference. You’ll learn what kinds of vehicles we accept, how our process works from start to finish, and how your donation supports Goodwill’s mission. We’ll also walk you through the quick steps needed to meet Texas title and registration rules. Whether your vehicle runs or not, we’ll come tow it away for free and send your tax receipt shortly after. You’ll also see a list of Texas cities and Goodwill partners we work with, so you can connect locally and give back where it matters most. It’s fast, rewarding, and a great way to make a big impact across the Lone Star State.
